What is a Weed?
A plant growing where it is not wanted

The Nature of Weeds
• Opportunistic plants
• Adapted to “niches” within the environment
• Herbicides can eliminate the weed, but not the
environmental conditions that provided an
“opportunity” for that weed
A paradigm shift
weed control weed management
![Page 7: Weed management in the landscape - … management in the landscape Travis Gannon, PhD 12-9-11 . Travis Gannon 919.513.4655 Travis_gannon@ncsu.edu](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022051802/5ae800237f8b9ae1578fcfa5/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Weed Management
• Herbicides are effective means of control
• However . . .
– Elimination of the weed does not eliminate the
environmental condition that creates a competitive
advantage
– How heterogeneous are turfgrass environments?
– Current management practices assume
homogeneity
![Page 8: Weed management in the landscape - … management in the landscape Travis Gannon, PhD 12-9-11 . Travis Gannon 919.513.4655 Travis_gannon@ncsu.edu](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022051802/5ae800237f8b9ae1578fcfa5/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
• Plant Competition:
– Light – most plants compete for this
– Nutrients
– H2O
– CO2
Weeds vs. Turf
![Page 9: Weed management in the landscape - … management in the landscape Travis Gannon, PhD 12-9-11 . Travis Gannon 919.513.4655 Travis_gannon@ncsu.edu](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022051802/5ae800237f8b9ae1578fcfa5/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Why Do We Have
Weed Problems? 1. Turfgrasses are non-native plants
2. Monocultures
3. Lack of sanitation
4. Cosmetic standards
![Page 10: Weed management in the landscape - … management in the landscape Travis Gannon, PhD 12-9-11 . Travis Gannon 919.513.4655 Travis_gannon@ncsu.edu](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022051802/5ae800237f8b9ae1578fcfa5/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Why Do We Have
Weed Problems?
• Turfgrasses are not native (depending on
where you are of course):
Growing non-native vegetation is always
difficult
![Page 11: Weed management in the landscape - … management in the landscape Travis Gannon, PhD 12-9-11 . Travis Gannon 919.513.4655 Travis_gannon@ncsu.edu](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022051802/5ae800237f8b9ae1578fcfa5/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Why Do We Have
Weed Problems?
• Ecology 101:
Natural Succession: Long term transition
of vegetation types to a condition of
stability.

Why Do We Have
Weed Problems?
• Monocultures – growth of a single
species
Monocultures tend to be man-made. In
turf, we force mother natures hand to
compete against us.

Why Do We Have
Weed Problems?
• Lack of Sanitation and Natural Movement
– People (shoes) and equipment (mowers, sprayers, tillage implements) movement from site to site spread weed seeds, tubers, bulbs, rhizomes, stolons, etc. Animals, wind and rain also spread weeds.

• Bleacher
• Turf Safety:
– Ky. Bluegrass and centipedegrass most tolerant
– Tall fescue moderately tolerant
– Ryegrass, St. Augustinegrass, & fine fescue
have “tolerable” registration.
– Bentgrass, bermudagrass, zoysiagrass - low
tolerance,
– Turf injury increases with heat & drought.
• Rates: 4 to 8 oz/a (0.125 to 0.25 lb ai/a, 0.14
